Congo Quest
Step into the jungle! Congo Quest is our 8,000 sq ft 3D jungle themed soft play adventure, packed with ball pools, crawl tubes, slides, a soccer court and electronic kiddies carts. It’s the perfect place for little explorers to climb, slide and burn off energy in a safe, supervised space, while parents relax with a coffee in the Congo Café.
We’ve also just unveiled our newly renovated toddler area, a dedicated soft play space designed especially for our youngest adventurers aged 0–2 years, giving babies and toddlers a safe, gentle environment to explore at their own pace.
